Artist Spotlight: Kissy Sell Out



For over half a decade Kissy Sell Out (alias for Thomas Bisdee) has flown under the radar of the American audience. However in his homeland of the UK he is a DJ icon. Funny how incredible artists sometimes never get the recognition they deserve in the States. Some artists only thrive in across the Atlantic. Bisdee is only 26 years old and he has managed to create critically acclaimed remixes for the likes of Gwen Stefani and Dragonette, has his own BBC Radio 1 program that showcases his work and also many unsigned DJ's that hope for success like he once had, and Thomas has just released his sophmore EP Wild Romance. An impressive resume for someone who has only had a few years to show his talent. Major artists such as Simian Mobile Disco and Tommy Sunshine helped Kissy Sell Out in his earliest years of preforming. I really have high hopes for his long future ahead and after listening to Wild Romance, I think he will finally get the respect he deserves in America.
